Piracy should be applauded here at every chance. The games industry has been shitting out bad product after bad product for years because too many gullible morons will give them money. The only way they're going to increase quality is by choking their money supply. If we can get the gullible morons who give them money to become gullible morons who pirate games then the industry has a chance at becoming something other than a shovelware, sales figures as representative of success, industry.
>All games
Now I'm a swarthy pirate but even I know there's plenty of online games with no private server replicas out there.
So unless you mean "free" as in "get someone else to pay for you" there's still going to be a notable subset where you can't get it free.
If you genuinely enjoy something and don't support the creators, then you're the cause of good media disappearing. Now, if you pirate to test if something is good, that is fine as long as you pay for it if it is good. That being said, I pretty much never buy anything these days because most games: >Are based around micro-transactions. >Are an interactive movie where your choices don't matter. >Offer absolutely no gameplay value and hold your hand like you're mentally moronic. >Only create challenge through tedium and unfair bullshit.
My current favourite games are: >Returnal >MWR >All SoulsBorne except for Elden Turd >Astro's Playroom
>haha both bad lmao, you have to press 1 button or your mother dies in her sleep tonight xD"
I won't play either, a buggy game isn't even worth stealing and gacha games are for trannies like (You)
what the frick do you think a free game with microtransactions is? for every path of exile monetization model (which is still p2w because how tabs work) there are 100 genshin monetization models, you are moronic.
>gacha was just the first thing that came to your mind cause your obsessed.
Because homosexuals play those "games" because it has "Le sexay animay wayfuz" in it to excuse the fact they are getting scammed and are willingly playing and giving money for garbage.

are all gachoids this hyper defensive? it's funny, someone will be like "I don't like gacha" and you get a wall of OBSESSED SEETHING RENT FREE 0 DAYS SINCE Ganker CRIED ABOUT IT
it's fricking weird behavior dude
no, gacha is the first thing that comes to mind because it's objectively the most prevalent form of microtransaction system in the industry right now, you absolute buffoon. it's such an obvious truism that it can't even qualify as seething when you mention it.
The rushed game will in time become a platform for inventive modding. The microtransaction game is probably not single-player or has restrictions on single-player, and is probably harder to reverse engineer because of the integrated merchandise element. Rushed $80 game any day.
Assuming both games are bugged, right
Assuming neither are bugged, still right
The only reason to go with left (if you're being forced to pick one at gunpoint) is if the right is some cyberpunk tier shit

I'd probably read a book or something until game 2 goes on sale in a few years after it's on patch 1.8 or something and also it'll be -75% off in a steam sale.
neither.
a "free" game revolving around microtransactions tend to be boring and baren. its either pay-to-win or overpriced skins.
a rushed $80 game that clearly needed more time but frickwits on the board demanded sales is almost sales fraud.
im not paying $80+ for a game that might get better in a year or two (if it isn't shit from the start or the devs just abandon it) nor am i playing a game that is bare bones and is designed to sucker people into paying for the ultra-mega rare pink dildo skin pack.
The second, easily, every time. If its buggy it can be fixed, but assuming its an $80 game includes ALL the current content, that's far better. Microtransactions as used by the industry are shitty predatory nonsense and I can guarantee that even if I bought $80 worth in a microtransaction free to play game, I'd get nowhere near to all the content - hell I may not get all the content that fricking WEEK.
I don't care about microtransactions as long as they are only cosmetic. I have enough willpower to not paypig for a chance to get a skin that makes my character look like a cheeseburger.
I choose to stay at home
All games are free unless you're moronic
ok
I'd gladly pay 60$ if it means no microtransactions

Piracy is a service issue, not a pricing issue.

>gacha not mentioned
>seething about it anyways
Rent free
what the frick do you think a free game with microtransactions is? for every path of exile monetization model (which is still p2w because how tabs work) there are 100 genshin monetization models, you are moronic.
>2 years of being mindbroken by genshin
Never said that, gacha was just the first thing that came to your mind cause your obsessed.
>no argument to either
shitt Black person no reply would have taken even less time, work smarter not harder
>illiterate

We get it anon, you are a huge gay.
>Microtransactions are okay if the game is anime styled!
You are the reason games are shit.
>genshittard
>calling others gays
bump
are all gachoids this hyper defensive? it's funny, someone will be like "I don't like gacha" and you get a wall of OBSESSED SEETHING RENT FREE 0 DAYS SINCE Ganker CRIED ABOUT IT
it's fricking weird behavior dude
mad?
I mean I only think about gacha when I'm jerking off to the porn so no not particularly
>posts textwall of seethe
>I don't think about you at all
mhm
no, gacha is the first thing that comes to mind because it's objectively the most prevalent form of microtransaction system in the industry right now, you absolute buffoon. it's such an obvious truism that it can't even qualify as seething when you mention it.
>gacha games are not free games that revolve around microtransactions because... uh- they just aren't okay?!

But define >revolves around
The fact that these are the only two choices truly shows why video games are dying.
Assuming both games are bugged, right
Assuming neither are bugged, still right
The only reason to go with left (if you're being forced to pick one at gunpoint) is if the right is some cyberpunk tier shit
>gachashit
vs
>AAA garbage
I think I'll just stop playing games if those are my two choices.
press neither button
what are you an applegay? you only choose whats infront of you?
"A free game that revolves around micrtotransactions will forever be a free game that revolves around micrtotransactions, while a rushed $80 game filled with bugs will eventually be a complete bug free 85% off on steam game" - Miyamoto
He didn't say that. His exact words on this subject were "More money, more funny".
None but if I have to chose left because then I pay nothing and I can just stop playing it.
If I can play right for free then right
just pirate, you're not a consoloid right?
I choose to let the industry die.

Microtransactions are far from micro these days. Used to be like 50cents now a lot of these "micro" transactions are starting at 29.99
I'd probably read a book or something until game 2 goes on sale in a few years after it's on patch 1.8 or something and also it'll be -75% off in a steam sale.
Game 1 I will likely never play.
Luckily I'm not a consolecuck so I can pirate, bypassing both buttons.
I pick C: free, high quality mods/maps/total conversions
neither.
a "free" game revolving around microtransactions tend to be boring and baren. its either pay-to-win or overpriced skins.

I'll press neither of those buttons and keep playing the hundreds of good games I already own, thanks
I choose not to choose. Vote none of the above.

I pick playing old games
Just play a gacha rhythm game, no one will care if you don't spend anything.
this is why industry types fully deserve to get ruthlessly bullied
i play an actually good game instead
Turn 360 degrees and walk away.
Nintendo releases polished $60 games. Sounds like a >you problem
>implying we won't get a 80 dollar rushed game that revolves around microtransactions
gullible as always, Ganker
I don't care about microtransactions as long as they are only cosmetic. I have enough willpower to not paypig for a chance to get a skin that makes my character look like a cheeseburger.
I choose to draw things on s piece of paper.
I choose to shitpost on Ganker
i choose speding my day shitposting on Ganker about both of these games
Neither?
Are the micro transactions purely cosmetic?
Is the buggy game enjoyable in spite of its flaws? Do the devs intend to patch it?
I choose Terraria
